Figure 9. DOR binding is enhanced in the presence of low dose CB1R ligand in cortical membranes.
Membranes from cortices of sham and lesioned animals were treated with 0.5 nM [3H]DPDPE in the presence or absence of 1 pM Hu-210 for 1 hour. Ligand binding assay was carried out as described in “Methods” and [3H]DPDPE binding to membranes was detected using a scintillation counter. Data represent Mean ± SEM (n = 7 animals/group). Statistically significant differences between [3H]DPDPE alone and [3H]DPDPE+1 pM Hu-210 are indicated ***, p<0.001, (t test).
